Macrobit software & technology
Hi everyone! I'm starting a new "company" (sort of, I call it a company but it doesn't make profit) called Macrobit. I started with my friend, sonicnine1. It's goal is to give people great software for free (unless we have to pay to develop it, then we will make it as cheap as possible)
Macrobit's goal is to be better than other software companys (well, you got to dream..) and give people what they want, technology wise. One of our first products is Kitcat 1.3, as we now "own" it. Some other software being developed is Quibble and Quibble Mobile, web browsers, and Blastmail,, which is a mail client. We would like your support, and we hope to get our website up and running in a few weeks.
Later, after we get the website running, we are going to allow a time for programmers to be in Macrobit. It will be a contest for who was the most skills in a programming language. Languages include JavaScript, HTML, PHP, ASP.NET, C# web, C#, Xna game studio, C++, Visual Basic, F#, Objective-C, Ruby on Rails, VisualScript, MySQL, and Jet Database.
The website is: http://macrobit.x11s.info/
—————
FOR ANYBODY!
Macrobit needs to get more popular. If you have a web app, android app, windows phone app, windows phone game, windows program/game, Scratch mod, Scratch game, Panther game (converted to java player with Panther2Exe or whatever it is), web site, wallpapers, tutorials, or ANYTHING ELSE YOU CAN THINK OF, please let us "own" it. I want to get some product out, and soon. I am currently working on Quibble and Blastmail, but I dont think ill get these done very soon.
If you want to donate something, POST BELOW!

This post sounds kinda spam-bot-y. Also, it sounds more like Making And Creating than Advanced Topics.

I have no idea on how to make a spam-bot. And these forums are where my target programmers are so....

Sounds very interesting.
Unfortunately, I have too little real programming experience to be of help.
Well, what do you know?

HTML, CSS, some PHP, some mySQL. The very basics of C++.
Nothing else.
Ah. So, mainly web programming. I know HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, very little C++, C# (that's my most favorite language), MySQL, Windows Batch files.
If anybody wants me to program them something in the above languages, ill be happy to do it.

Re: Macrobit software & technology
Handcoding. I consider website creators cheating. Besides, by making the website by handcoding it allows me to do whatever I want to it. I'm rally godd at it too, I have almost all the site done, and I've only been at it for two weeks. I even have user authentication!

Re: Macrobit software & technology
I could help, even though I only know a little bit of C++, Python, Pydev, Java, Lua and PHP + MySQL. I know only little of these, and only have made pretty basic scripts. BUT. I am currently developing a game in C++, which is based upon Minecraft.
I'm back.
Maybe.

Re: Macrobit software & technology
How would you like a JavaScript Server?
No, Im not joking. I made it in Panther.
It justs writes data in JS form.
So it's ideal for actually interacting WITH the page.

Re: Macrobit software & technology
I could help, for free of course.
I know (Skills and PlS (programming languages))
Visual Basic (I have full version so I can see long term software)
JavaScript (Advanced, have you SEEN e3DS?!)
Use MySQL as a back for a more simple server.
Hosting in GMT Times
HTML (Somehow my JS is better than that...)
Animation
Troubleshooting
Collab organization
Working fast
So, can I join?

@DigiTechs
So, you know Lua? That I can not program in. However, I do need a Lua programmer. And good luck with your game!
@Servine
Can you show me the JS server? And you do know a lot of things!
@Both of you and everybody else
Yes, you can join. However, I need to make a developer portal on the site, and I need to get the site done, too. Don't worry, the site should be up and running in a little bit, I need to finish user profiles.

I don't really want to show it in public.
Do you have a non-personal email I can email it to?

Maybe. What part of the site do you want to work on? I can make custom FTP accounts on this server that only allows acess to a certain directory.

Re: Macrobit software & technology
Good luck. I have a tip for you. You should never ever ever write any code before you've designed the whole program. You could ignore this but it will take longer to make a program which wouldn't be that great.
My site Find someone post count. Click posts under username. Find number of pages. Times that by 40 for min and 60 for max and you have a rough estimate of post count.

Yeah. I have noticed that. For example, I wanted to add Xbox Live to a completed Xna game, but my code was so huge, I couldn't find anything in my code.
